A comparative investigation of the activity of superoxide dismutase in patients with leukoplakia and healthy controls

Conclusions: The study revealed a difference in the free-radical activity and oxidative stress in blood of leukoplakia patients compared to healthy patients, which is reflected by the variation in the levels of blood SOD, thus showing vulnerability to cellular damage and tendency towards further malignant changes.
